At a conference to celebrate 15 years of Vienna’s LGBT anti-discrimination office (‘Antidiskriminierungsstelle für gleichgeschlechtliche und transgender Lebensweisen’), FRA Director Morten Kjaerum will give the keynote speech, presenting an overview on landmark developments in the last decade regarding the respect for fundamental rights of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) people in the EU.

He will outline the work that FRA has carried out on the rights of LGBT people since 2007 with a particular focus on the results of the FRA EU LGBT survey (from May 2013) and what these results mean for the rights of LGBT people in Austria and the EU.
